Cupid Busy in College Circlet.
Not U the young women, or men
cither, who are preparing to take an
active part in the world by attending
institutions of higher learning are con
centrating upon matters purely intel
lectual. The story comes from those
who have friends at colleges here and
there and at our own state university
that many young women are far more
interested in filling their "hope chests
than in the serious work of the great
A
1 1 Some of these delightful young af-
' I fairs are coming to light each day. To-
j I day the engagement of Miss Blanche
'. Busk to Mr. Albert J. Covert is an-
j nounced. Both are seniors at the
1 1 state university.
ji Two young people who are adnut-
!l tedly engaged recently motored to
?i Omaha for a short visit. Both are
students at the state university, she
if a Lincoln girl, while he resides in
si Omaha. Another pretty Omaha girl
found the persuasions of Cupid too
I enticing to resist, so that she left
school before the year was over to
. announce her engagement to a popu-
: lar young man. A perfect deluge of
' j engagements of school folks seems
if imminent. i
Some say: "Marriage is such a
I serious matter that anyone so en-
! grossed in studies as school men and
women should have little time to con-
sider it." The young people say: "Oh,
I it is a pleasure that we can always
remember these school days to-
I getherl" .

Bread Making
The test above all others for the
excellent housewife formerly was her
ability to make a perfect loaf of bread.
That test linger! with us still, though
there are many fine housewives who
would not attempt to pass it Modern
city conditions have changed our
household industries, but there is still
a satisfaction in producing a perfect
loaf. Of all our cooking processes,
bar canning, I think there is none so
dependent on a knowledge of science
as a basis of constant success. A
practical housekeeper will learn by
the trial and error method that cer
tain conditions make for good bread,
but the trial and error method is an
expensive luxury in this day and age.
Nothing has convinced me of the
value of . this theoretical knowledge
so much as the fact that of all my
students who have made bread in the
class room onlv one ever had a com
plete failure though I must admit
that many of the loaves have been
far from perfect in texture. But text
ure is a quality that conies with ex
perience in kneading.
The theory of bread making is
based directly on the growth of the
yeast plant . Because the yeast is
plant it requires certain conditions
for growth. Given these conditions,
the bread must be a moderate success.
The yeast plant must have food,
moisture and warmth. The first two
are provided by the bread dough itself
the last must be secured by care.
Hence bread dough must be kept in a
warm place, tor cold retards the
growth, and. extreme heat kills the
plant. Theoretically, cold does not
kill the yeast plant, but if the dough
is unduly chilled it seems difficult to
revive the plant to vigorous growth
In securing proper conditions for
the growth of the yeast plant one is
at the same time securing excellent
conditions for the growth of other
invisible organisms which might spoil
the bread. For there are at all times
tn the air certain tiny onanisms, the
familiar bacteria, which might enter
the dough and develop there. The
first precaution against unfavorable
organisms is absolute cleanliness. A
kitchen should be well swept and
dusted long enough before the bread
making process that the dust may
settle. All utensils should be scrupu
lously clean. A second precaution is
the use of boiled water, or scalded
milk. The liquid must be cooled
down to lukewarm before adding the
yeast or the plant may be killed. 1 he
dough should be covered with a clean
cloth while it is rising;. The use of a
bread mixer is good from this stand
point, because the dough is not ex
posed to the open air during mixing.
The modern short process of bfead
making, in which the bread is com
pleted in five to six hours, give less
opnortunity for bread to spoil.
Flour, liquid, yeast and salt are the
only essentials for bread. In fact,
bread may be made without salt, and
in early days the bread was allowed
to t stand until the wild yeasts of the
air, entered and raised it. Later a
piece of dough was kept from one
baking to the next, as a "starter."
The liquid may be water, milk, half
and half, potato water, or whey.
Water is. of course, the cheapest;
milk makes a more tender bread with
higher food value; potato water
bread keeps moist well, and whey'
bread has a higher food value than
water bread at less cost than milk
bread. The whey bread is higher in
mineral matter and sugar. Most
recipes call for a little sugar to give
the yeast plant available food at the
start. The plant produces a ferment
which acts upon sugar, changing it
to alcohol and carbon dioxide gas.

(By AGNES DARNELL)
Whole sweet milk is a ffood wrlnkltuchaaer.
as maity women have eome to learn. Further
more, it' ia considered to be unusually ef
fective in makinr a
roughs blotchy, "muddy"
skin smooth, clear and
exceedingly delightful to
look upon.
Only a few minutes
spent each evening, us
ing this new method of
beauty-oulture, will pro
duce almost astonishing
results in a-rrmarkably
short time. The best
and most effective way
to use the milk Is in the
form of a rolling mas
sage cream.
Any woman ean easily
prepare per own beauty
cream by dissolving
about two ounces of
nlain powdered bryol in
ene-hlf pint of sweet, unskimmed milk. This
should tnen oe neaiea to near m poumi
point, and when cool will make a full half
pound of tha very finest rolling massage
CrLsu'gh wrinkles and fine lines are easily
rubbed out, and even deep furrows gradually
disappear when this milk massage cream is
employed. While H is easy and inexpensive
to prepare, care anouia oe laxen to see mat
tha milk ia perfectly aweet and unskimmed.
Tha powdered bryol should be purchased
from your druggist in an original, unbroken
two-ounce package. Advertisement.

The alcohol escapes in the baking.
The carbon dioxide lightens 'he mass
of dough. It also passes off in the
baking. A little shortening may be
added to bread dough to make a more
tender loaf.
The excellent reputation that bread
has as a food is not undeserved. With
butter, or some kinds of fat, it forms
a perfect food, as fat is the only
foodstuff that is particularly lacking.
One hears a great deal about the su
perior value of the coarse brown
breads. In defense of the white
breads it must be granted immedi
ately that white bread is more com
pletely digested and assimilated than
brown breads; hence, weight for
weight, one receives more food value
in terms of heat units from white
than from brown bread. But heat
units are not the only necessity of a
well-balanced diet Mineral matter,
that very valuable foodstuff, which oc
curs in such small amounts, is par
ticularly found in the hulls of grains.
Hence in -that respect brown bread
is superior to white. One of the spe
cial functions of this mineral matter
is to keep the digestive tract clear. In
this function any rough material, such
as the bran of grains, aids; thus the
coarse breads are particular aids to
good health as they help in the elimi
nation of the body wastes.
As was stated in the first para
graph of this article, many a house
wife of today has never mastered the
process of bread making. There are
many reasons for the state of affairs,
and I do not believe laziness is the
chief one. For there are many points
in favor of buying baker's bread.
Bought bread is absolutely sure, for
the large-scale baker can control his
conditions better than the average
housewife, and he employs experts
for every stage of the process. Bought
bread saves time and labor; bought
bread gives as much food value,
weight for weight, as home-made
bread, and bought bread is made in as
clean a manner if not, cleaner man
ner than the average home-made
bread. Especially is this statement
true if the bread-making is left to the
untrained worker in the kitchen. Do
you know that in the large bakeries
the room where the bread rises con
tains washed air? On the side of
home-made bread are two unanswer
able arguments the flavor and the
cost The question of flavor is unhesi
tatingly on the side of home-made
bread, in the opinion of most people,
but there is less difference in cost
than is popularly supposed. If one
counts the value of the housewife's
time there is no money saving; with
out counting time, a 10-cent loaf costs
about 6 cents, i he 6-cent esthnate is
based on the assumption that four
loaves are made at once. In a large
family, where more loaves would be
made, the cost is slightly less per
loaf; in a case where fewer loaves are
made, the cost is slightly more. The
reason that home-made bread is more
"filling" is that it weighs more in pro
portion to bulk thai, baker's bread.
Hence a slice ot home-made bread
does give more food value than a
slice of baker's bread; but, weight for
weight, there is no difference in food
value.

pour over sugar, salt and fat Cool
to lukewarm and add yeast softened
in a little cooled boiled water. Stir
in one quart of the flour to make a
sponge and let rise in a warm place
till light (bubbles will appear). Add
rest of floor and knead thoroughly
about ten minutes. Place in a greased
bowl, and moisten the top of the
dough that it may not form a hard
crust Let it rise in a warm place till
it doubles its bulk. Knead thoroughly
again,' shape into loaves and let rise till
hulk is again doubted. Bake one hour
in a moderately hot oven. When the
loaves are done they should sound
hollow when knocked with the
knuckles. The main purposes of the
kneading are to develop the gluten of
the bread-which forms the framework
(the gluten gives the rubbery quality
to the dough), and to make a fine,
even texture by distributing the bub
bles of carbon dioxide gas.
Bread may be made without the
sponge step. Add all the flour ai
once. The amount of flour indicated
in the recipe is only approximate, a:
flour varies in its power to take up
liquid. Enough flour should be added
to make a stiff dough, yet if too stiff
a dough is made the bread will be
hard. Experience is the . only satis
factory guide as to exact quantity ol
flour, though the proportion indicated
is fairly accurate.
